I gotta agree with @smaragdus its up to the anti-virus developer to correct their mistake naming something as malware or anything bad when in fact it is not! I have used this software for quite some time and really like and its easy to use & works great.MIKLO

VirusTotal lists the main archive (avidemux_2.6.19_win64.exe) and some of the DLL's as possible malware. This might be due to excessively pessimistic heuristics used by some of the analysis programs, but this should be addressed by Avidemux developers.

Avidemux doesn't just cut avi videos like knife cuts through butter, it also joins (appends) segments together, quickly and easily. For simple and easy editing of avi video files it is so much better than Virtual Dub, which takes ages with recoding.

I Love Avidemux but version 2.5.6 is the last version which support directstream copy of avi files so i don't use the new versions but otherwise it is one of the best programs available for cutting video.
